Today’s Writing Quote
“If I could say anything, it’s keep going. Don’t go back and fix that scene, that dialogue. Just write the next word.”
— Ann Hamilton Phelan
Today’s Inspirational Video
“PS22 Chorus kids always like to employ good grammar, but even better is when they employ the GREAT Andy Grammer to sing along with them!! Check out this performance of Andy’s theme song to FIVE FEET APART that moved him to tears…”
Awesome and inspiring performance.

Each day this month, I’ll post a Zero Draft Thirty Challenge post here at Go Into The Story. And as I’ve done with every past Challenge, I will hand out an award for a notable Tweet, Facebook post, or comment here on the blog. This cycle, the winner will receive the Anita Loos Award!
Today’s Anita Loos Award winner: Sophia Louisa.
Over at the Zero Draft Thirty Facebook group, Sophia posted this:
You can make every excuse imaginable not to do something. Or you can take that same energy and do what scares the bejeezus out of you… and when you find yourself actually doing the very thing you’ve dreamt about, you’ll discover a reservoir of energy and creativity you didn’t realize you had.
For the encouragement and inspiration Sophia offered, she is today’s Anita Loos Award recipient!
As Joseph Campbell says: “The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.”
